docc Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 Might be better no one can clearly see what's going on. Spin control is easier this way . . . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docc Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 Before that gets out of hand, let me say that overlook was the only one (going or coming) on the Cherohala that was not socked-in with 100 foot visibility drizzling fog. (Came just in time, too) . . . Joe's sweeeeet Rosso Mandello Randy's very fine Coppa Italia (complete with Randy!) 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it was due to crap on the pads. Thanks to the 18th Annual Spine Rainery it seems to have cleaned out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the Sport had the courtesy not to completely lock up the front brakes until she and I were at a complete stop and out of the dense fog. Four different Guzzis with brake issues of some type. As I have often said lately, "No reason to plan a TechSession. Somebody's bike already has one planned for us. Just: Get There. Bring Tools." 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Randy, The Jack of Diamonds ). ♦️ 3) Wear out truck and trailer tires, but preserve motorcycle tires. "Get There. / Bring Tools." (A known, valid, strategy. Our most mature, and most calculated, element, The Jack(s) of Clubs ) : ♣️♣️ 4) Discover a tire fail and enjoin in the solution. Pray for divine intervention. (The Jack of Hearts. ) ♥️ Fact. I was there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note to Spine Raiders who ask, "Can I ride my (something else)?" Why, sure. Until you show up with your (something else) the third time and it leaves re-badged . . . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
